Parts for Whirlpool WCG51US6DS00: 03 - Burner Box, Gas Valves And Switch Parts

This gas valve assembly controls the flow of natural or LP gas to a range or oven burner, restoring proper fuel delivery for reliable ignition and cooking performance. Use as a direct replacement when the valve fails. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to the burner(s) so the oven or range can ignite and maintain a flame
• Works with the appliance's safety and ignition systems to stop gas when the burner is off
• Commonly replaces valves when burners do not light, have no gas flow, or flame is intermittent
• Matches OEM function to restore normal operation without modifying existing controls

• Turn off gas supply and unplug the appliance before starting any work.
• Gas fittings must be leak-tested after installation.
• Do not modify the valve; follow appliance manufacturer instructions and local codes.

The Valve-Gas is an OEM part for Whirlpool gas cooktops. This valve is located underneath the cooktop and is responsible for controlling the flow of gas to each burner. 

Symptoms of a bad gas valve can include:

• Inability to ignite or adjust certain burner flames
• Gas leaks or smells around the valve area 
• Intermittent or irregular flame levels
• Yellow flames that pose a safety risk

Over time and with heavy usage, components inside the valve can wear down affecting proper gas regulation. 

Compatible models also include KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Admiral, and some Kenmore units. 

This switch seal is a replacement gasket that helps keep moisture and debris away from the appliance's door/control switch, protecting the switch assembly and helping restore reliable door detection and operation. What it does:

• Seals the area around the door/control switch to block water, lint, and grime.
• Helps prevent intermittent trips or failures caused by moisture or foreign material contacting the switch.
• Promotes consistent switch actuation and can extend the service life of the switch assembly.
• Useful when the existing seal is cracked, torn, flattened, or missing.

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical shock.
• Access typically requires removing the door trim or control panel—follow your model's service instructions.
• Inspect the switch and surrounding area for damage or corrosion and clean before installing the new seal.

This gas pressure regulator controls and stabilizes incoming fuel supply to the appliance's burner system, helping ensure consistent flames and reliable operation. Replace it if pressure is unstable or burners/oven won't heat or ignite correctly. What it does:

• Reduces household gas supply to the appliance-rated pressure for proper burner performance
• Maintains steady pressure as burner demand changes to prevent over/under-firing
• Helps prevent yellow, lifting, or flickering flames and sooting caused by pressure issues

• 1 gas pressure regulator

• Shut off gas supply and disconnect power before servicing
• Observe flow-direction arrow on the regulator body; install between supply and appliance manifold
• Use approved gas-rated thread sealant on threaded connections; do not overtighten
• After installation, check all joints for leaks with a non-corrosive leak-detection solution; correct any leaks before use

This spark module supplies the high-voltage pulses that ignite the surface burners on a gas cooktop or range. Replacing a failing module helps restore consistent clicking and spark so burners light promptly and reliably.

• Supplies high-voltage to up to five surface igniters (5+0 configuration)
• Sends spark when a burner control is turned to Lite
• Failure symptoms can include no spark on all or multiple burners
• May also cause intermittent/weak spark or continuous clicking

• Disconnect power and shut off gas before servicing
• Note wire locations; move one connector at a time to matching terminals
• Mount securely in the original position and ensure proper grounding
• After replacement, if only one burner won't ignite, inspect that burner's switch and igniter

This is a #10 x 2 inch appliance screw used to fasten panels and components in household appliances. It provides a simple, reliable hold to keep parts aligned and reduce vibration. What it does:

• Secures trim, panels, brackets, and internal components
• Helps prevent rattling or movement from loose or missing fasteners
• Restores proper alignment where a worn or missing screw causes gaps
• Works wherever a #10 x 2" fastener is specified by the manufacturer

• Disconnect power and water to the appliance before servicing
• Use the correct driver to avoid stripping the head; do not overtighten
• Keep track of removed fasteners and replace with identical-size screws
• Inspect mating threads and replace any damaged hardware

This orifice spud meters gas to the burner for a consistent, correctly sized flame. Replace a clogged or damaged spud to restore proper burner output and reliable ignition on your gas cooktop or range.

• Controls and meters gas flow through a calibrated opening to the burner
• Helps ensure proper flame size and color when matched to the correct burner and fuel type
• Common symptoms of a failing or clogged spud: weak or uneven flame, yellow tipping, or delayed ignition
• Damaged threads or a stripped orifice can prevent correct sealing and fuel delivery

• Shut off gas supply and disconnect power; allow the appliance to cool
• Access the orifice holder/manifold for the affected burner; remove the old spud with an appropriate orifice wrench or nut driver
• Start the new spud by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly—do not overtighten brass threads
• Restore gas and check for leaks with an approved leak-detection solution; verify flame quality and adjust per the service manual

This tie-down bracket secures the appliance during installation so it stays firmly in place. It helps prevent shifting, vibration, or lifting for a solid, stable fit and reliable operation over time.

• Anchors the unit to its opening as designed, helping keep it stable
• Helps reduce movement, vibration, and rattling during use
• Replaces a bent, damaged, or missing bracket to restore a secure install
• Common signs: appliance shifts or rocks, visible gaps/misalignment, loose fit

• Disconnect power; shut off gas before servicing
• Install in the location/orientation specified by your product's installation instructions
• Reuse the model-specific mounting hardware or replace per your manual
• Tighten hardware securely but do not overtighten to avoid damage

This replacement griddle creates a flat, stable cooking surface on your range or cooktop. It sits on the designated grate area over the burner(s) to restore safe, even griddle cooking when the original is missing or damaged.

• Provides a flat griddle surface by resting on the designated grate/burner area
• Helps distribute heat across the cooking surface
• Restore safe operation when the original is cracked, warped, chipped, or missing
• Common signs to replace: rocking/unstable surface, visible damage, or the griddle no longer seats properly on the grate

• Turn off all burners and allow the appliance to cool completely before handling
• Remove the standard grate(s) from the griddle location
• Set the griddle on the designated grate area and ensure it is fully seated and stable over the burner(s)
• Preheat gradually and follow your Use & Care Guide for operation and cleaning
